Finally!

Well, if they told her not to do a stunt like that, and she -deliberately disobeyed- them she has it coming to her.

You cannot possibly tell me she didn't know that you can't protest inside, just like you can't stand within a certain distance of a polling place for candidate endorsements/protests/etc. This isn't a first amendment issue at all, it's a counter-measure for people trying to push agendas/endorsements/etc. of any sort in a government building--it's done in the favor of equality and non-bias, but that's dumbing it down more or less. You can't honestly believe that she did that thinking she was going to stay; she did it to get arrested in hopes of upstaging the president. Hey, guess who's all over the news suddenly for getting arrested... well I'll be dipped in ****.

You don't get to talk, after being stupid enough to put up a web page with pictures of the WTC on fire after the attacks, accompanied by scripture from the bible.

I'm not sure that's a logical conclusion. :p

How so? I'm pretty sure not complying with police orders is not good

Correct me if I'm wrong, but he willingly volunteered himself for the army. No one broke that kid's arm and said "GO DIE." Whatever active conflict a person is engaged in during their service is completely irrelevant. They're people, doing a job. A sucky job, if you ask me. But they're still doing it. You can die doing this job. I think that much should be pretty clear, when you go to the recruitment office.

I can understand why she's upset. Her son died. But I totally don't care. And this isn't some "OH I LIKE LINKIN PARK AND I'M A NIHILIST" crap. Its just how it is. He volunteered, it was part of the risk. You don't see anyone getting their panties in a bunch when some new aids treatment doesn't work and someone dies anyways. (Well, atleast not on a scale this ****ing grand)

And this whole, "bring the troops back" thing is stupid if you ask me as well. We already screwed their stuff up for no damn good reason. "Liberating" an oppressed country is a crappy argument. There are worse places we could have gone first, if such were the case. You can't just start pulling people out left and right. You're ****ing over the people that have to stay even more.

And I don't think they're "protecting my freedom," in Iraq. So I don't want to here the "OMG YOU'RE UNGRATEFUL TO THE MEN AND WOMEN OF THE ARMED FORCES PROTECTING YOUR FREEDOM" crap. Thats a weak *** argument. So is the "Foreshadowing protecting your freedom" argument.


Good post ++ For all the [expletive deleted's], I think it sums up reality nicely, at least as far as the whole situation is concerned.

It's missing her point--you could say that the dude in 1984 disobeyed orders and "had it coming to him." I'm not saying I agree with her, because I think she's being silly, but his statement assumed too much for my tastes. :p

Meh. Perhaps you're right. But then what do we say she got arrested for? Being silly?

Wait, I know longer know what my opinion is. Darn you.
